From what I understand out of all this, some people who have a tendency for this kind of thing might be influenced by weed. So I suggest you go see a doc asap.

Go see a therapist and talk about it. Suicide is not something you overcome on your own.
Exactly what I am doing, or trying to do atleast. I doubt I will ever smoke weed again or at least not for a long time. In one of my panic attacks I went outside burnt my weed and smashed my pieces. I was actually scared of that shit in my messed up state of mind.lxcpikiman wrote:

how's that any different from private therapy in the uk?jord wrote:
Yep but if you can't afford it and it's going to drain your pocket putting you at risk of Depression then think it through. I know what Americans are like with Therapy, billion dollar industry innit
I'm saying Americans are very quick to go into therapy at $100+ an hour sessions with problems that can arguably be solved by talking to someone and getting some free advice.Uzique wrote:

Maybe the cultural differences of where I'm from and America and where you're from and America are different then, that's not a dig though on either place. People here just rarely go into therapy I guess.Uzique wrote:

It depends on your social class mostly. For some reason, our middle and upper classes have deemed trips to therapy to be normal. It used to be just bored housewives who wanted valium that went. Now it's become part of the culture that if you have issues you should seek counseling. Marriage problems? Go to a marriage therapist. Low self esteem? Go see a therapist. I think it's mostly a crock of shit. The psychiatric world has created a billion dollar industry providing a 'need' that for some reason never existed before Freud. It's preying on the weak and nothing more.jord wrote:

Ya I thought as much and many Americans feel the same as you. I guess if you're not going to therapy then you aint one of the cool kids.JohnG@lt wrote:

Its free through my university health center, not a bad deal. I might get some anti anxiety/depression meds out of it too which will hopefully be of help. I would still appreciate advise from a person with real life experience still.jord wrote:
So like, how much is this psychiatrist charging? I'll give you better advice at an affordable rate for these hard economic times.
Having smoked it before and given advice before I think I'm qualified.

I always thought weed was pretty much harmless...
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/8386344.stmPeople who smoke potent skunk are more at risk of psychotic illnesses such as schizophrenia than those who use other types of cannabis, scientists suspect.
According to new research, regular users double their risk of psychosis but heavy skunk users increase theirs seven-fold.
UK experts have a theory it is down to skunk's composition - it contains more of the chemical that gets users stoned.
The work is published in British Journal of Psychiatry.
I knew it caused laziness and overall made you a less clear minded person but I never expected it to cause psychosis ect. I was ignorant and I payed the price. I gotta stop analyzing myself on this forum, only makes it worse...Dilbert_X wrote:

Keep the appointment with the doctor. You have what i had, but more severe. The world i saw was bubbly and movie-like. Like things were scripted. White-light like in large supermarkets and garages often times triggered the spells. However, when i would get my mind on something it would go away. Like you said however, when i came to a stop and had a chance to 'think' it would happen again.specops10-4 wrote:
